W H Smiths in minor towns will have it for the week-end.
Seriously now. Those that are on subscription get it a day or two earlier than us lesser mortals.

Unhappy

Filled up tonight at my local Shell garage and I had previously noticed they had stocked Banzai but it was not on the shelf tonight. So I will now resort to WH Smith tommorrow and try and get a copy.

Bob T, your local you can always have a gander at my copy if I manage to get hold of one. Failing that we can always ask Mellow Yellow at Croft on the 6/4/02 to bring his copy (I bet he has one).

Bob,

You are actually in the article though. Sat in an Evo's boot.

You Traitor!!!

Rich

P.S.

My Mum tried getting a copy from WHS this week in Manchester but they weren't on the shelf. She asked at the counter and they got her one from out the back. Apparently because it's an April/May mag they hadn't had chance to put it on the shelves yet!!

Nobody dare mention my position...

Mind you mine should be 208bhp as standard... so not too bad with 60,000 miles

hey nice corner Craft

Well.... I went in the petrol station and there it was, it seemed rude not to buy it

I took great pleasure in showing the lass at the counter my piccie.... get this, she says " ohh, I know him too"!! and points to Rich, I'm overjoyed at my horsepower Dunno what she's called but she works in the Esso at CrossHills.

Not a bad feature is it, could do with a Fiesta to liven it up tho

Cheers for the offers chaps

Bob,

WOW! Fame at last! Don't even know where CrossHills is let alone anything else . I think she must just be a Scooby groupie. LOL.

I noticed Mellow's car too. It's a bit obvious isn't it. There it is stickered up in one pic and then not in the next.They should have spotted that before printing. I'll be having words with Banzai I think. It annoys me when they get things wrong, bloody hell, they've had long enough to get it done!!!

Cheers
Rich

P.S. Wish you were there on sunday Steve, Could have kicked that Supra's *** for me

No Mellow - surely it was another imitation and not you at all....

As for the Motec - depends who maps it...

You could get the same output for much lower spend and the new Links are now much better - I'm now more than happy with mine - but its a matter of choice and the Motec does a few things the Link does'nt - you get more - but you certainly do pay for it - plus the lack of choke control put me off it - didnt fancy sitting in the driveway revving it for 30-40 seconds before I drove it - I'm obviously baised though - best to speak to people who have them - I know people who have both and map both and sell both.....

As for the power hike - sure you can cope with a 'fast car' on the track - I mean you might get scared of driving a performance car... hahahaaaaaa
